Actually I do complain that NFPA has far more code churn than is necessary. They release a new code every 3 years and the day it is released they are already taking proposals for the next cycle in spite of the fact that most jurisdictions will not adopt and start using that code until the next cycle is out. (Sometimes 2 cycles) The code is updated based on proposals to an existing code the writers have zero experience with. It is really just a money grab. NFPA's main business is selling books. Most of the adopted proposals come from the manufacturers of the equipment the code mandates. The AFCI is a good example. It got into the code because of the Cutler Hammer reps on CMP 2. It was in the code before Cutler Hammer even had the device in production. At that time they were the only manufacturer who had one and the first couple generations were flawed. Much like masks, there wasn't even a standard of what an AFCI was or what kind of arc it could detect. The first 2 generations were really just GFPs (30 ma GFCI) with very limited arc detection capabilities. I really felt bad about the customers who were forced at the point of a government gun to buy a $40-50 device that didn't actually do what it was sold to do and there was no free replacement when the technology improved. Square D did have a CPSC recall but it was because of a more serious problem than just not detecting arcs. |

Actually about 90% of the work on the Pfizer and Moderna (mRNA) vaccines was already done before Covid hit, The research was done for SARS and MERV. The engineering of the "transport mechanism" was all but finalized - it was just getting the right "messenger" or "program" determined and tested that took a year. The Astra Zenica and J&J vaccines are more traditional and also borrowed heavily from previous technology - the testing being the most time consuming past of the process - getting the virus inactivated without making it ineffective - and making it effective without being infectious.

It's the first pandemic in about 100 years and we have worked out that that stuff works, using real science. Has there ever been a precedent for this? Yep, similar stuff has been done in the past, even during the Black Death when far less was understood about the science. They quite literally nailed infected people up in their homes and left them to die there. China did some of that in Wuhan and that still works. Even the USA has had forced quarantine for the infected at various times, and not just for foreigners either. |

Her actions prove she obviously doesn't believe the COVID orders she issues. "Rules for thee but not for me." -Cruella de Whitmer |

I remember all the lefty libtards said it wasn't possible but President Trump did it. Really? I thought the pharmaceutical companies did it. Did not realize he was working in the lab. Exactly. As always, trump just claimed credit for something he had little to do with. The $3.5 billion and trimming a little off the onerous FDA process certainly got the vaccine out about 6 years ahead of the normal pace. The pipeline was full by the time Trump left office. Only because Trump got very lucky and three of the six vaccines panned out. Had only one worked, we'd still be waiting. Trump even refused to place more orders with Pfizer in late summer, those orders went abroad instead. Biden had to do it. |

The vaccine doesn't necessarily make you immune, but it does give you much better protection from the virus. What is sad, is that you may be vaccinated, but you can still be a carrier/spreader to the 40% of idiot antivaxxers and the folk who can't be vaccinated for health reasons, thereby perpetuating the constant spread of the virus. So this will never end. Is that what you are saying? Well it could turn out to be similar to the flu in respect of needing a jab every year to immunise for the new strains that develop. Anti vaxxers just make the problem a lot worse. President Trump was instrumental in getting the vaccines to market in record time. I remember all the lefty libtards said it wasn't possible but President Trump did it. Yes, all those nights alone in the lab, cranking out dose after dose. You're an idiot. Cindy Hamilton No, he had people in the Fed printing money and he had FDA trimming a lot of fat off the approval process. You folks make it sound like Fauci was actually doing something tho besides the scare of the week. Absolutely ZERO came out of 9000 Rockville Pike (NIH) except conflicting advice and gloomy predictions. Apparently the first test for Covid that became available in March, was nothing. |

You chose a poor analog - the Polio and Smallpox vaccines are a much better comparison than the annual flu vaccine. Or the Measles vaccine. Or the Shingles vaccine. and what percentage get the measles or shingles vaccine in the USA. Likely closer to 5 than 50. Say what? Measles has largely been eradicated here because of the very high vaccination rate, it's over 90%. |

That was at a time when you got a vaccine at school whether your parents approved or not. Most didn't even know until you got home and told them. Yes, imagine that. A time when we had a president who was a leader, instead of a lying, anti-mask, shyster. A time when disease was not politicized by right wing loons. |

So has my whole family with exception of 6 year old granddaughter. I think it is stupid not to follow the science and the facts. If you do not want to be vaccinated that is your choice and you can live with the consequences. And yet your hero, Donald Trump, sits by and does nothing to encourage the Trumpets who follow him like a God, to get vaccinated. He even made sure his vaccination was done in private, so there would be no footage of it. He doesn't want to do anything to oppose any of his followers, whether they are anti-vaxxers or white supremacists. Polls show 45% of Republicans say they refuse to get vaccinated. Further evidence of what a total scum bag Trump really is. Trump has been gone for 100 days. Let it go. Why don't you tell the Republicans to let Trump go? They won't they are still grovelling before him, he's their leader. That's why we can't "let it go". Where is that big change we were going to see? I haven't see a damned thing change. No surprise there. We are still counting on Trump's vaccine but you folks are now quibbling on that. It was never Trump's vaccine. Pfizer started all out development on the vaccine in January 2020, with the CEO ordering it, telling them do whatever it takes. Trump was still lying and denying for months. And even after that, explain to us what exactly you claim that Trump did? All I see is that Congress, not Trump, put together a huge Covid bill that included a trillion dollars, some of which was targeted for vaccines. Trump then gave some funding to some of the vaccine companies for development and placed orders for the vaccines. BFD, even a moron like Trump could do that. And even that, he screwed up royally, but we happened to get very lucky. There were 6 potential vaccines, Trump only placed partial orders with some of them. He should have had Manhattan Project like commitment and funding for all six. If only one had panned out, we would have been totally screwed, the country would not be vaccinated until next year. But we got very, very lucky and 3 panned out. Now you are telling me it doesn't stop the spread of the virus in any appreciable way and we still might die even if we are vaccinated You're confused again. I never said that. You are the one that has been saying for months that because the mask and social distancing recommendations continue, that means that the vaccines don't work. Is there a plan for the end of this yet? It's in progress. I see, you have already turned on the guy you voted for so you must not be looking at him for it. I am disappointed that Biden has gone ultra lib crazy, but at least he's not a daily embarrassment to the country and disgrace to the office. And right now if I had to vote again, I would still pick Biden over Trump. I pointed out that you were someone that would cut off his nose to spite his face but it appears now that you would cut off your head to spite your body. Even one of our enemies believes this: https://english.pravda.ru/opinion/39...erica_fascist/ Russia is our enemy? Trump loved Russia and Putin, spread all Putin's lies and BS, while undermining NATO and our allies. Yet we never heard you make one peep about that, instead you defended Trump as he did it.

I wonder if he cries and goes to pieces every time the NEC is updated. "Breakers instead of fuses? No more knob and tube wiring? You guys need to get your story straight." Actually I do complain that NFPA has far more code churn than is necessary. They release a new code every 3 years and the day it is released they are already taking proposals for the next cycle in spite of the fact that most jurisdictions will not adopt and start using that code until the next cycle is out. (Sometimes 2 cycles) The code is updated based on proposals to an existing code the writers have zero experience with. It is really just a money grab. NFPA's main business is selling books. Most of the adopted proposals come from the manufacturers of the equipment the code mandates. The AFCI is a good example. It got into the code because of the Cutler Hammer reps on CMP 2. It was in the code before Cutler Hammer even had the device in production. At that time they were the only manufacturer who had one and the first couple generations were flawed. Much like masks, there wasn't even a standard of what an AFCI was or what kind of arc it could detect. The first 2 generations were really just GFPs (30 ma GFCI) with very limited arc detection capabilities. I really felt bad about the customers who were forced at the point of a government gun to buy a $40-50 device that didn't actually do what it was sold to do and there was no free replacement when the technology improved. Square D did have a CPSC recall but it was because of a more serious problem than just not detecting arcs. +1 And `educators' have another course lesson series for $$$ -- Tekkie |

You're getting the benefit of all those that were vaccinated, while afraid to take a tiny risk, one that pales in comparison to the real, deadly effects of the disease. I just heard a commercial urging people to get vaccinated. It said that this is the first time since WWII that all Americans need to come together for the common good. You're hiding, no surprise there. And with almost 600K Americans DEAD from Covid, we need the vaccine now, not years from now. You got it. Near you it's expiring because they have too much. Ya know some hospital people are refusing it? They have to pay them to take it? You don't stand for freedom of choice, your mantra is "I am lord, I am right, sit down, shut up" sounds familiar from say the 40's thereabout. -- Tekkie I see, so following science and sound medicine, advocating for people to get vaccinated so we can save lives, reduce hospitalizations and put this behind us, is like being a Nazi. Is that what you just implied? No, the way YOU and your ilk demand compliance with YOUR thoughts. No one else's is valid. You trust the gov't too much. You do realize the gov't controls the news? If they don't have a story the news media makes one up. Doesn't it make you pause for thought when the networks ALL have the same stories using the same buzzword? Doesn't that seem strange? Do you listen to opposing viewpoints? Why are you so emphatic about issues here? They won't change anyone's mind. People have free will to makes decisions for themselves. Your opinions don't matter and shouting will only alienate them more. Do you want me to make thoughts and decisions for you? I don't think so. The way the gov't used to treat these incidents was quarantine the victims and the public was free to go about their business. Now the gov't MAKES you follow their orders, with police enforcement, which aren't scientifically proven. You have been deprived of your rights without any basis. It's about power. All your postings here will not help the world. Why don't you go out and volunteer at a vaccine clinic? Why not read to children? Go walk a dog at the animal shelter. Think of something to get away from the computer. You may not change the world but you will change someone's life. -- Tekkie |

If I die I will die out there living, not huddled in the corner scared of a virus I am supposed to be immune to now. The vaccine doesn't necessarily make you immune, but it does give you much better protection from the virus. What is sad, is that you may be vaccinated, but you can still be a carrier/spreader to the 40% of idiot antivaxxers and the folk who can't be vaccinated for health reasons, thereby perpetuating the constant spread of the virus. So this will never end. Is that what you are saying? No one knows how exactly this will "end". We do have experience though with other vaccines, putting down or totally eradicating diseases. So stay tuned. BTW, let her rip didn't work with any of those either. Which other virus prompted the government to force mask wearing, businesses to close and people to stay home? Has there ever been a precedent for this? Well here's an example where a devastating disease was allowed to run riot without wearing masks etc and look what happened. The Black Death was one of the most devastating epidemics in human history. It was the first outbreak of medieval plague in Europe, and it killed tens of millions of people, an estimated 30€“50 percent of the European population, between 1347€“1351 https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC4013036/ Since the plague was transmitted from flea bites, I doubt masks were going to help much. What stopped the plague was people getting the rats out of their homes and according to your article it might have actually not been the worst thing to happen.. The writers do seem somewhat pragmatic about it. " By targeting frail people of all ages, and killing them by the hundreds of thousands within an extremely short period of time, the Black Death might have represented a strong force of natural selection and removed the weakest individuals on a very broad scale within Europe". " After the Black Death, there was a severe shortage of laborers, effectively ending the medieval system of serfdom, and consequently wages improved dramatically while prices for food, goods, and housing fell [23]. These changes represented a major redistribution of wealth. Real wages rose to levels that were not exceeded until the 19th century, which allowed for improvements in housing and diet for people of all social status levels". "Improvements in diet after the Black Death, and particularly decreases in social inequities in diet that presumably benefitted the majority of the lower status population of England, might have acted to reduce average levels of frailty in the population, perhaps more than any other factor associated with improvements in standards of living. Changes in diet can lead to changes in health because nutritional status strongly influences immune competence [31]. Following the Black Death, the amount of money spent per capita on food increased, and people ate higher quantities of relatively high-quality wheat bread, meat, and fish, much of which was consumed fresh rather than salted as had been common prior to the epidemic [29]. Such changes probably improved the nutritional quality of the diet [29], and given that the diet of lower classes became more similar to that of high status individuals, a greater proportion of the post-Black Death English population was consuming a nutritious diet than had been true before the epidemic". It sounds like the talking points at a Democrat convention. ;-) |

I remember all the lefty libtards said it wasn't possible but President Trump did it. Really? I thought the pharmaceutical companies did it. Did not realize he was working in the lab. Exactly. As always, trump just claimed credit for something he had little to do with. The $3.5 billion and trimming a little off the onerous FDA process certainly got the vaccine out about 6 years ahead of the normal pace. The pipeline was full by the time Trump left office. Only because Trump got very lucky and three of the six vaccines panned out. Had only one worked, we'd still be waiting. Biden got lucky that there was vaccine in the pipeline when he took office. Trump even refused to place more orders with Pfizer in late summer, those orders went abroad instead. Biden had to do it. BTW the world is ****ing with us that we didn't let enough vaccine out into the rest of the world and they are backed up by your bleeding heart democrat friends so that is another story you need to get straight. |

We typically only get around half who take the Flu shot and that is a well established vaccine. You chose a poor analog - the Polio and Smallpox vaccines are a much better comparison than the annual flu vaccine. Or the Measles vaccine. Or the Shingles vaccine. and what percentage get the measles or shingles vaccine in the USA. Likely closer to 5 than 50. Say what? Measles has largely been eradicated here because of the very high vaccination rate, it's over 90%. That is 90% of children, not the population in general, mostly because it is done in school, sometimes without the knowledge of the parents. Shingles vaccine is still less than 50%, more like 35%. Same with pneumonia and the flu shot. |

Anti vaxxers just make the problem a lot worse. President Trump was instrumental in getting the vaccines to market in record time. I remember all the lefty libtards said it wasn't possible but President Trump did it. Really? I thought the pharmaceutical companies did it. Did not realize he was working in the lab. Exactly. As always, trump just claimed credit for something he had little to do with. The $3.5 billion and trimming a little off the onerous FDA process certainly got the vaccine out about 6 years ahead of the normal pace. The pipeline was full by the time Trump left office. Only because Trump got very lucky and three of the six vaccines panned out. Had only one worked, we'd still be waiting. Biden got lucky that there was vaccine in the pipeline when he took office. Trump even refused to place more orders with Pfizer in late summer, those orders went abroad instead. Biden had to do it. BTW the world is ****ing with us that we didn't let enough vaccine out into the rest of the world More utterly mindless **** from you. and they are backed up by your bleeding heart democrat friends so that is another story you need to get straight. Nope, you do, as always. |

I doubt you will get 90% in the most compliant countries and the US is not one of them. You doubt. You don't know. Or even have a rough idea. We typically only get around half who take the Flu shot and that is a well established vaccine. You chose a poor analog - the Polio and Smallpox vaccines are a much better comparison than the annual flu vaccine. Or the Measles vaccine. Or the Shingles vaccine. and what percentage get the measles or shingles vaccine in the USA. Likely closer to 5 than 50. Say what? Measles has largely been eradicated here because of the very high vaccination rate, it's over 90%. That is 90% of children, not the population in general, mostly because it is done in school, sometimes without the knowledge of the parents. Shingles vaccine is still less than 50%, more like 35%. Because it isnt anything like as serious a medical problem. Same with pneumonia and the flu shot. There is no vaccine for all pneumonia, stupid. |
